Mumbai Attacks

I just don't get it anymore! How can there be so much hate in this world?? This is really sad - these terrorist attacks on innocent human beings! The Taj Hotel in Mumbai was the first 5 star hotel built in India and the hotel itself is very grand overall. But not anymore due to the recent attacks on it along with the other hotel - Oberoi. This whole thing was because these stupid morons who were armed with AK-47's, grenades and machine guns, wanted some stupid prisoners released - dumb fucks!! These are some of the horrific visuals.
